I always understood that Jehovah STARTED with his own house.
The Israelites were God's chosen people, it was the "truth" at that time. It has been pretty much demonstrated just how imperfect they were. But God still allowed his son Jesus to be born among and holding to that nation. As imperfect as it was, it was still God's "tool" to deliver the Messiah, and I guess it will still be the same case in our day.

I tried to talk with silentlambs before but he/she was completely unreasonable. S/He puts on a pretense for caring about molested children, but s/he narrows their focus on the WTB&TS; thereby demonstrating that s/he really has a differnt agenda.
It is to destroy/attack the WTB&TS hell or high-water.
S/He doesn't care so much about the children that were hurt. S/He cares that it was within the WTB&TS organization.
I attempted to argue that if s/he keeps publishing some really outlandish stories without verification of their truthfulness and ALL of them against the WTB&TS that s/he would discredit their own cause.
S/He actually attacked me verbally for trying to help!!!
